Mental Loop
(Published on 1. January 2024, 21:27 by Taeqle)
Normal Sudoku rules apply:
Place the digits 1 to 9 once in each row, column and 3x3-box.
Killer:
In cages, digits must sum to the samll clue in the top left corner of the cage.
Little Killer:
Along the diagonal digits must sum to the clue outside the grid.
You can solve it at f-puzzle or CTC.
Hope to get feedback on the path to the solution.
Good Luck!
Solution code: Row 9 (9 digits)

This was brilliantly constructed! The cages played well with each other and the solve required some thinking without being brutal. Loved it! Thanks!

very nice setting. i think 2* is a fair rating. the puzzle was very smooth. no major roadblocks and no slogging through it. easier puzzles can be elegant and harder != better construction. thanks for sharing and nicely done

I really enjoyed the solve path, how it went around cages smoothly. But that made it deceptively easier than it really was!
Thank you for the puzzle.
